Title: Juan Williams Fired...............
Post by: Mickey001 on October 21, 2010, 11:31:07 am: Check the story out below. I cannot for the life of me, understand the firing of Juan Williams from NPR. I watched O'Reily the other night and his comments were spot on correct. NPR is funded by you and me from our taxes. Congress appropriates money to them. NPR is suppose to be fair and balance, but if you ever listen to it, they are really a far left reporting organization. Hmmm...Congress gives them money, the Congress is led by the Democrats, tend to be left of center, etc..... How in the hell can they be fair and balanced? I say Juan should sue them and Congress needs to immediately conduct an investigation. Juan Williams is somewhat to the left in his beliefs, but the man is so very honest. He made a remark that was right of center and then he gets fired. Pure BS!!

What do you think?

Now the CEO of NPR is trying to make him look like he is crazy. Just look to who is donating money to find out why he was fired. His association with fox news is why and George Soros is pulling the strings behind the scenes.
